The course includes kinematics, dynamics, projectile motion, energy conservation and transfer by working, and momentum transfer in collisions. A schedule of the content in the 2010 course is available, and this year's course will cover similar content.

This course is a part of the University of Wisconsin, Oshkosh Master of Science Education - Physical Science track. In this track, key science concepts are explored through active engagement in laboratory activities, collaborative groups, and online discussions. Participants are immersed in the Modeling Method of Instruction and computer-based data collection and analysis. Course materials are research-based and aligned to state and national science education standards.

The course is suitable for physics or physical science teachers (grades 9-12). More advanced teachers (e.g. experienced Modelers and AP physics instructors) will be challenged through special activities and problem sets.

Although this course is part of a MSE in Secondary Science Education program, participants can enroll in individual courses as a nondegree-seeking 'Special Student.' Auditing is an an option and is cheaper.
